Overview
Learn the essence of Japanese watercolor at your own pace with artist Ayano Otani, guided by Zen principles. Embrace the unique culture and philosophy of the Land of the Rising Sun through 16 traditional projects—paired with step-by-step instructions, diagrams, and QR codes for how-to videos. Drawing on the techniques of calligraphy and sumie—the use of black ink to represent nature—this easy-to-follow, full-color guide provides lessons in regional palettes, seasonal hues, and subjects such as bamboo, koi, sakura (cherry blossoms), and sushi. Each brushstroke reveals the harmony between color, line, and the spirit that defines the Japanese aesthetic heritage. Beginners and intermediates alike can practice alongside an expert. Just hit play!
